The correct way for the Uchiha to rise

Then, as if remembering something or sensing something, he exclaimed in surprise.

"Could it be that Uchiha Kumo? Damn it, what did that guy say to Naruto?!"

Tsunade didn't even have time to go through the main entrance; she broke through the window and headed straight for Naruto.

Jiraiya also sensed the surge of Nine-Tails chakra. At the same time, he knew Naruto best and knew that Naruto wouldn't activate Tailed Beast Mode for no reason. Moreover, he could sense Naruto's very unstable emotions at that moment.

"What's going on? There's another burst of Uchiha Un's chakra over there. Damn it, that guy must have said something to Naruto."

Jiraiya quickly climbed down from the roof of the bathhouse and headed straight for Naruto. However, unlike Tsunade, he didn't dare to rush out directly. He first carefully climbed down from the roof before sprinting away.

"Five tails, not bad. Let me see how powerful you are in this state. Although you only have half of the Nine-Tails inside you, you should still be stronger than other tailed beasts. Don't disappoint me."

The Nine-Tails in the sealed space heard Uchiha Kiyoshi's voice and was in turmoil. How did this guy know so much?

After Uchiha Kiyoshi finished dressing up as 13, he also became serious.

That's the power of half a Nine-Tails with five tails, and there might even be more tails later, so I need to be careful.

"Molten Armor Mode 1.0"

Uchiha Kiyoshi's body was also covered in red chakra. However, the difference was that his was fiery red, while Naruto's was a slightly darker red. The final result was armor, rather than just chakra covering his entire body like Naruto's.

Techniques of instantaneous movement and propulsion.

Uchiha Kiyoshi shot towards Naruto like an arrow released from a bow.

Punch.

The propulsive technique was applied to the waist, elbows, and other joints, amplifying the power of the punch.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

There are no fancy ninjutsu techniques, just pure hand-to-hand combat.

Naruto's injuries healed rapidly in Tailed Beast Mode, while Uchiha Kiyoshi, protected by his armor, was already relatively unharmed. In addition, his masterful medical ninjutsu allowed him to directly control his chakra and use Yang Release to heal the injuries on the other's body.

The two seemed like tireless machines, constantly colliding, leaving footprints and cracks on the surrounding ground.

Even when Naruto loses control of his emotions, he still possesses fighting skills, which is enough to demonstrate the level of Jiraiya's teachings.

Suddenly, his tail extended and reached for Uchiha Kiyoshi. Uchiha Kiyoshi's left hand was entangled by the tail, and he was pulled in front of Naruto, who delivered a punch right in the face.

"I'm done playing, I'm done playing, damn it, why bother with close combat with a Jinchuriki?"

Uchiha Kiyoshi cursed under his breath as he used the Body Flicker Technique to free himself from the tail's entanglement and appeared not far away.

"Molten Release: Qi Element Slash"

A fiery red disc emerged from both hands.

Uchiha Kiyoshi rushed in front of Naruto, waving the discs in his hands.

Although it's still close combat, it's no longer hand-to-hand fighting; it's now combined with ninjutsu.

"Shouldn't this be considered a form of ninjutsu?"

Uchiha Kiyoshi barely managed to gain the upper hand. But then Naruto seemed to be spurred on, his aura surged, and three tails reappeared behind him.

"Eight now."

Uchiha Kiyoshi was caught off guard by Naruto's sudden change and was swept away by Naruto's tail.

Taking advantage of the opportunity to distance himself from Naruto, Uchiha Kiyoshi began treating his recent injuries.

"Tsk tsk, that's really going all out."

As he spoke, the armor disappeared, and he switched to Gundam.

A twenty-meter-tall fiery red giant appeared. Naruto was only the size of the giant's palm at this time. Uchiha Kiyoshi controlled the lava giant, grabbed Naruto, and slammed him to the ground repeatedly.

As his chakra aura dissipated and his size shrank, Naruto seized the opportunity to dart out and was grabbed by Uchiha Kiyoshi's hand.

As soon as he leaped out, Naruto's aura surged again, and another tail grew from his back.

Nine now!

A lava fireball appeared in Uchiha Kiyoshi's hand, and he swung it down towards Naruto.

"Roar!"

This time it's not Naruto, it's Kurama (the Nine-Tails).

The Nine-Tailed Fox is enraged.

The mighty Nine-Tails was being bullied like this by the other party, and the Nine-Tails was furious.

Compare body types? Come on.

Naruto's body swelled up, destroying the surrounding trees and cracking the ground.

The fully-formed Nine-Tails, with its body reaching a full 100 meters, exudes immense pressure. Uchiha Kiyoshi's current 100-meter-tall Gundam form is not yet complete, so he definitely cannot defeat it.

However, Uchiha Kiyoshi still engaged with Kurama, wanting to test Kurama's strength.

Uchiha Kiyoshi has never possessed Sage Chakra.

This is also one of his trump cards.

Although there is no Sage Mode or external changes, the Sage Chakra is real, and the power of the techniques cast with Sage Chakra is two to three times that of the original.

"Immortal Technique: Gundam Mode"

Uchiha Kiyoshi filled the Gundam mode with a large amount of Sage Chakra, enhancing the Gundam's various abilities.

Then, piloting the twenty-meter-tall Gundam, Uchiha Kiyoshi engaged in battle with Kurama (the Nine-Tails).

Despite his smaller size, Uchiha Kiyoshi possessed significant advantages in speed and agility. It was precisely these two strengths that allowed him to constantly evade the Nine-Tails' attacks and find opportunities to use his Spirit Slash to leave wounds on the Nine-Tails, causing it to roar in fury.

Tsunade and Jiraiya, who were rushing over from a distance, felt a chill run down their spines upon hearing this.

Although Uchiha Kiyoshi inflicted many injuries on Kurama, none of them were fatal; the only effect was to continuously provoke Kurama.

After verifying his own strength, Uchiha Kiyoshi gave up.

"I can't beat them, I can't beat them, I'm outta here."

I still can't beat the Nine-Tails.

Of course, many of Uchiha Kiyoshi's techniques were not used, such as the Mangekyou Sharingan. Another reason was the fighting style; Uchiha Kiyoshi used close combat, which meant that he didn't have to use many of his other techniques.

While the 100-meter Gundam lacked physical strength, the ninjutsu it used was incredibly powerful. It couldn't even unleash techniques like the Giant Spirit Slash or the Lava Fireball.

Gundam deactivated, and the Substitution Technique was activated. Uchiha Kiyoshi disappeared from his original spot and reappeared in the forest outside Konoha.

Tsunade and Jiraiya had just arrived at the scene, but before they could even condemn Uchiha Kiyoshi, he disappeared, leaving them extremely frustrated.

With his target of hatred gone, Naruto also exited his Tailed Beast Transformation, collapsing to the ground, utterly exhausted.

Even now, he's struggling to use his full strength. Of course, he's also more exhausted mentally.

If you look closely, you'll notice that Naruto's eyes are vacant at this moment, and you don't know what he's thinking.

Chapter 222 White Zetsu

"Naruto is back, the Dragon Vein should be sealed now, and I can go back and study it in peace."

Uchiha Kiyoshi didn't stay at the Dragon Vein to conduct research because he was worried that Naruto's return during the research would cause him trouble. After all, although he wasn't afraid of Naruto, that was the Dragon Vein, and if Naruto messed things up and caused any consequences, it would be disastrous.

Uchiha Kiyoshi had originally planned to make his own arrangements after leaving Konoha, and had almost forgotten about the Dragon Vein. It was only Naruto's return that reminded him that he didn't seem to know how to get back...

Walking along the paths of the Land of Fire, Uchiha Kiyoshi was planning his next move.

"Once we return to the dragon vein and figure out a way to travel back, we can stay here and cause trouble with peace of mind."

From his meeting with Naruto, Uchiha Kiyoshi also deduced that Naruto had never seen him before.

In other words, Naruto did not travel to his own world.

That's true. Naruto and An Lushan traveled to different times, so An Lushan is definitely not the same person.

However, the development of all parallel worlds is consistent: Naruto kills An Lushan who traveled through time six years ago, and the An Lushan he is going to kill will be killed by Naruto who travels to the time of Uchiha Kiyoshi six years later.

Uchiha Kiyoshi did not travel very fast.

Although he said that whether he could encounter a White Zetsu depended on luck, Uchiha Kiyoshi still hoped to capture a few White Zetsu, because these creatures were really peculiar.

White Zetsu were biological weapons created by Kaguya after she used the Infinite Tsukuyomi, intended to fight against the Otsutsuki clan. At the same time, Madara Uchiha also used Hashirama's cells to create a batch of lower-tier White Zetsu, which were almost identical in ability.

The White Zetsu formed from Obito Uchiha's body were most likely White Zetsu created by Madara Uchiha himself. As for whether the White Zetsu, the biological weapon created by Kaguya, had the same function, Kiyoshi Uchiha didn't know. Since he didn't like gambling, his target was actually always these White Zetsu created by Madara Uchiha.

"The White Zetsu currently active in the ninja world should all be created by Madara Uchiha. After all, the White Zetsu from Kaguya's era should have been sealed away. Otherwise, it would be a bit unclear why the White Zetsu are still active in the ninja world. After all, the White Zetsu are not Black Zetsu. They did not inherit Kaguya's immortality. Only by sealing them away can they play a role when needed."

While he said he was taking a chance, Uchiha Kiyoshi really just didn't know where to look. Right now, all he could do was slow down and travel longer, hoping someone would leak his whereabouts so that White Zetsu could come and investigate—that would be perfect.

Uchiha Kiyoshi kept his mental perception active, so he could sense any White Zetsu entering within a kilometer of him.

"Wow, just like that, speak of the devil and he appears."

Uchiha Kiyoshi formed hand seals and created a shadow clone.

The main body and its shadow clone acted simultaneously.

"This is bad." In a hidden area to the right of Uchiha Shigeaki, two White Zetsu cursed inwardly.

"It's all your fault. You insisted on having two people come. See, you've given yourself away."

Although they didn't know what the problem was, the two White Zetsu immediately blamed each other.

"Hehe, two White Zetsu have come, that's too kind of you."

Uchiha Kiyoshi was incredibly fast. He possessed a propulsion technique, and his speed continuously increased throughout the entire operation. He covered the distance of 500 meters in the blink of an eye.

The main body and the clones each have a clearly defined role, one for each person.

First, he enveloped himself in a chakra membrane to isolate himself from the White Zetsu spores. Then, he activated his Sharingan, cast a genjutsu, and took advantage of the opponent's momentary lapse in concentration to grab him and begin the sealing process.

"As expected, it doesn't count as life."

Uchiha Kiyoshi's main body completed the capture, while the shadow clone was a little slower, but not by much. By the time the main body's attention was diverted, the shadow clone had already inserted a kunai into the opponent's heart.

Shadow clone dissipated.

They approached the slain White Zetsu and examined it.

"It's still active. No wonder it's a body created by Hashirama cells."
